Craft beer maker Arrogant Brewing is cleverly promoting its bad boy image and delivering an upper cut to competitors it calls "sellouts" with a new antagonistic promotional campaign that puts branded T-shirts in the spotlight. With its "Unworthy Beer T-Shirt Amnesty Month" campaign, the Arrogant Brewing team is inviting suds lovers to send them the T-shirts of beer brands that were once independent breweries but have since sold to become part of global beer conglomerates.

Watch as Product Editor Joe Haley presents a variety of fun and unique promotional products, with ideas for how these items can be used to help you increase sales, raise awareness, promote an event, draw attendees to your booth at a trade show and much more.

For fans with a sweet tooth, a favorite among the merch could very well be a new Star Wars-branded offering from Ample Hills Creamery.

March 17/St. Patrick's Day
Commemorating the patron saint of Ireland, this day celebrates Irish culture and those of Irish descent.

Parade attendees across the country will appreciate shamrock headpieces, Kelly green T-shirts and light-up necklaces, while bars and restaurants can use coasters, barware and signage.
